BURNER.

Original No. 1,519,056, dated December 9, 1924, Serial No. 629,193, filed March 31, 1923. Application for reissue led December 2,

This invention relatesto improvements in gas burners, and more particularly to burn-v ers adapted for use in connection with the radiant stoves, an Object of the invention being to provide an improved construction of grid with an improved mounting therefor, whereby the maximum of efficiency may be had in fuel consumption, and which enables the grid to be readily removed and cleaned from time to time.

A further object is to provide an improved burner construction in which the gas is properly fed through all of the spaces of the grid so that the heat units are utilized to the full and best results are hadvin giving fuel consumption and radiance in the stove in which the burner is used.

A further object is to provide a burner with a gas manifold in which a relatively long narrow channel having parallel sides and spacers connecting the base of the channel for supporting a removable grid which lits the channel, and which comprises longitudinal strips held in spaced relation by blocks Xedly securedthereto and functioning as supports or rests for the grid upon the spacers.

With these and other objects in View, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations, and arrangement of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.

l In the accompanying drawings:

Figure l is a. plan view illustrating my improved burner.

Figure 2 is a view in side elevation.

Figure 3 is a view in longitudinal section on the line 3 3, of Figure 1.

Figure 4 is a view in transverse section on the line 4-4, of Figure 1.

Figure 5 is a perspective view of the grid.

Figure 6 is a fragmentary view in transverse section on the line 6-6 of Figure 3.

Figure 7 is a similar view in section on the line 7 7 of Figure 3.

1 represents the manifold or burner body of my improved burner which is elongated longitudinally and at its lower reduced portion is removably secured to the Outlet end of a Bunsen tube 2.

This Bunsen tube at its point of connection with the manifold 1 is curved to give the necessary length to the Bunsen tube and to provide a chamber 3 in which the gas 1926. serial No. 152,242.

ispermitted a swirling action before its entrance into the manifold 1, so that it is evenly distributed throughout vthe manifold l for best results.

The .upper edge of the manifold l is formed with a longitudinal channel 3, which channel may be cut by an ordinary tool in straight line with parallel side walls, and integral spacers 4 connect the walls of the channel Vand provide supports for my improved grid 5. I

The grid 5 consists of a plurality of longitudinal strips 6 which are held in spaced relation by grid blocks 7 and 8. These blocks 7 and 8 are recessed in their upper faces to receive the strips 6 which are secured in the recesses in any approved manner, and the blocks 7 are relatively long as compared to the blocks 8, and are adapted to rest upon the spacers 4 as well as upon the end walls of the burner. It is essential that theform of the grid means which are used be such that the spaces between the grid elements or strips shall be much deeper than the width of said spaces, in order to obtain efficient operation of my burner for its use in radiant stoves.

It is to be understood that these blocks 7 and 8 are of a width corresponding to vthe width of the channel so that they fit neatly and snugly within the channel of the burner and provide longitudinal burner orices between the spacers 4.

By reason of a construction of this character, the grid can be readily removed and cleaned from time to time and furthermore a maximum of efficiency in fuel consumption is secured because the gas with its conn tents of air is uniformly distributed to the spaces or Orilices formed between the strips and burns with a full heating and intense flame, which is especially adapted for use in connection with radiant stoves and the like.

Various slight changes might be made in the general form and arrangement of parts without departing from my invention, and hence I do not limit myself to the precise details set forth, but consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

I claim:
